The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Small school so it felt like my options were as vast as I hoped. However class and teaching was rigours and challenges students to excell. There's not a library or a room for a library so it's hard to find a place for peace in quiet.

While i attended valor college prep from 2021-2024 as a freshmen to senior I can say the school itself has a great academic program and is very encouraging in that department but as far as a high school experience and getting you ready for the real world it's lack in effort.

Started at Valor Voyager in 8th grade and stayed at Valor College Prep for all of high school. Initially, I found myself enjoying learning here since I felt all of the teachers really cared about my education and made sure I understood everything. Over time this still remained true, however administrative made more and more bad decisions that I didn't enjoy, which made me very bored in my last year.

I LOVE Valor. All my teachers are nice and pumped! They help us prepare for tests. They give us awards for getting all A's or getting A's and B's every quarter. They also do Color Wars (it is really fun). Every one is super nice and get us ready fir test exams etc.

it Is cultish and stifling and the curriculum is too focused on TCAPS and social justice to create a well-rounded experience

While the first year or so was a huge adjustment from public schools I would not have done anything differently. They test your child and put them in classes that match their academic level not their grade level so your scholar is getting the most prepared for collage. It has been the best experienc...
